A group of male university students lodged a complaint against a female professor, claiming she sexually harassed them and was physically violent, local media reported.

According to reports from local broadcaster SBS, the professor allegedly touched her male students constantly and kissed one student’s cheek at dinner. Also, she reportedly asked the students to take her home late at night.

Another student said the professor was violent when she heard that he gave up a school performance.

“She slapped me across my face five times, hit me on the top of my head with a cell phone and kicked me in the stomach,” a student, who asked not to be named, said in an interview.

The professor denied all the allegations.

“They must have wanted to touch me in a friendly way (at dinner). I didn’t force them to do so,” she said.
